Just wondering where is a good place to stay close to LAX (with shuttle service) ?
Marriott Courtyard is nice. It is on a street that's pretty quiet. There are a few eateries right there, but if you drive a mile or two south on Sepulveda you'll come to Rosecrans. Turn left there for a lot of nice restaurants.
You can also check the Doubletree. We had our company lunch there one Christmas, and I noticed they have shuttles to the airport. Their cookies are delish, too!
I work about 2-5 minutes away from these hotels, so kind of know the area.
Good information, Mary Jo. Since this is the area I seem to keep coming back to, I'm very interested. I had thought about getting closer to the Hollywood/Bev. Hills area for our tour/s, but then I'd be farther from LAX. I guess I'm paranoid about not getting the flight home!!!I just checked out three locations near LAX: Hilton Garden Inn, Courtyard by Marriott, and Doubletree. All three have shuttles to LAX, and it took me six minutes to drive from Doubletree to LAX at 9am (well, a few minutes before), and six minutes to drive from LAX to the Courtyard by Marriott.
Be prepared the area in and around LAX has some of the worst traffic almost all day. You will need to add extra time to travel anywhere. Also Hollywood is not super close to LAX. You have to take the 405 to the 101 (two freeeways known for terrible traffic) or all surface streets with lots of lights.
